By Citlali Flores One of the biggest concerns of any traveler is how to travel safely through the country they are going to, in this case Colombia, and it is true Colombia have became a very safety country but it never hurts anyone to follow some local recommendations as a minimum security to not look like a distracted foreigner with a sign on his face that says "steal me" not only in Colombia but everywhere you go, so here's the 10 basic safety recommendations to avoid unpleasant events while traveling. 1.- Never carry your passport all the time. This have always been my number one tip, it is unnecessary to carry the passport with you all the time or if you go to the store, instead I recommend you bring an ID that identify you as a citizen of your country and show your necessary information such as your name, age, address, etc. Also you can take a picture of your passport. 2.-Do not put all your cash in the same place. This is also a basic advice, you do not need to carry all your cash with you every time you go out. The best is just take what you think you'll need and a credit card just in case you will need extra money, also remember to have it in different places, for example, some money in you purse, and a few in your shoes. 3.- Keep everything important in a secret place in your hotel. This is something that always I do, I do not like to travel with many valuable things like laptop or Ipad, but when I need to take them, I always try to find a secret place in my hotel room (even if it is just below the pillow), hostel usually have lockers so there

One of the most typical questions we ask ourselves when we visit a place is "what should we bring", right? Because obviously we can't go out and being relax knowing that once at the destination we won't be able to go to the store to find what we need.

"Yes, I know it's obvious but many people often forget it.". Something that we mustn't forget -no matter what destination where we are- are our identity cards (Passport if you are foreign) Why? In case the authorities require it, some emergency and the most important, because without this you won't enter in the Tayrona Park -Requirement: Mandatory- Second ... Don't forget your glasses and a good sunscreen! The sunscreen is something essential for our trip to Tayrona Park, remember that you will walk for several hours and you will be exposed to the sun, so we will need to protect our skin from sunlight. By the way, taking with you sunglasses wouldn't be a bad idea! Three! Take with you an insect repellent... To go to this site we must make a long trip and we must keep in mind that we will be in contact with nature, so if you want to avoid having the visit of those little bugs, you will need a good insect repellent! Fourth, Don't forget to bring water! The tour can be a bit tiring so I recommend you bring at
